Where do I start....
At the beginning of the year, me and my mate decided we wanted to do a bit of racing throughout the summer. I had looked into go-karting but to do it seriously looked like it might cost a bit. I also have a motocross bike which is only a 2006 model so would still be quite competetive, but motocross can cost big ££££££. I remember seeing a poster somewher about some Autograss racing. After a quick search on google, I found my local club, phoned the chairman of the club and was down at the next comitee meeting 2 days later. This all went on about 2 months ago.
Since then, i've bought the car that came 3rd in the local Championship last year in it's class and have given it a bit of a makeover.
After a journey to the other side of the Forth Road Bridge, this is what our £530 got us......
We had the bumpers and bonnet e.t.c but we already had these off ready to get cracking. The amount of spares we got was unreal, 3 cylinder heads, a rear axle, shocks and springs, full exhaust system, 9 spare wheels to name a few
There was plenty to sort (seat mounts to make, exhaust hangers to make, rub down and respray, sticker up, wheels and tyres to change and paint, new ignition panel to fit, new battery to get, repair and modify battery box e.t.c) but after a month or so working on it, this is what we have now........
I get the impression that my girlfriend is getting sick of me and this car already judging by the sticker she bought me.....
Think i may have went a bit overboard with the stickers in some places!
HUUUGGGEE thanks to our very own Mr Cherry for sorting me out with a heap of decals, really pleased with them
Roll on April 18th for the 1st race
